Make sure you are resetting the rFDs wFDs and eFDs each time through the
loop. And what does the rest of your event loop look like? Did you specify
a zero timeout for the EvtGetEvent() ? When you are doing both
NetLibSelect() and EvtGetEvent() within your event loop you should set a zero
timeout for the EvtGetEvent().
You can have a look at my crappy code if you want :)
